Learning Stations (April 23 - 27)

The nursery rhyme during this week was Hickory Dickory Dock.

Art Station

The children make their mice and paste it on the big clock!

Here is a picture of all the mice made during the week!

Math Station

Since we are talking about the clock, what better activity than to teach the children to tell time by the hour? A clock game is the focus of the Math Station where the children will pick up a clock card and say what time it is (e.g., 10 o'clock). Then, he/she shows it to the group and if everyone in the  team agrees, he/she wins a chip. After two rounds, the children work on their worksheets which will make them draw the short hand of the clock to show the time being asked for them to write on the worksheet.

Literacy Station

The children make their Itsy Bitsy Book of Hickory Dickory Dock!

Science Station

I read to them a non-fiction book entitled What Is A Rodent? It was a good thing that the mice page were two pages that summarize the facts. The children have a worksheet of a House Mouse which they will label the different parts of the mouse and I will scribe to them an interesting fact that they heard from the reading.
